Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - sailorsam - 07-09-2025 Now we know that the tragic Texas floods were preceded by cloud seeding https://www.newsweek.com/rainmaker-ceo-cloud-seeding-texas-floods-2096525 Over the past week, Doricko has appeared on several news broadcasts and podcasts to discuss the technology and explain why it isn't linked to the floods. "We unequivocally had nothing to do with the flooding that was caused by the remnants of the tropical storm that blew in," he told Steve Bannon on the War Room Podcast. He continued: "Our biggest cloud-seeding missions to date have only produced 10 million gallons of precipitation approximately, and that tropical storm dumped about 4 trillion over the course of two days. "The order magnitude difference between what cloud-seeding is even capable and what happened is incomparable." of course. just a coincidence. anyone with knowledge of? RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - Ninurta - 07-09-2025 I'm no kind of expert, but I can give an opinion. I think these weather patterns are just part of the natural process of the Earth warming up again as we continue to exit the last ice age. I don't think "man made" anything, whether CO2 emissions or cloud seeding, can lead to the sort of things we are seeing - it's just a part of the natural cycle. I don't think there are enough cloud seeding crystals on Earth to create the kind of storms that come up - remember, to seed a cloud we first have to have the moisture to seed into, enough water to gather around the seeding media. You can throw seeds all day long on dry ground, and they'll just lay there and do nothing. Same for clouds. There has to be something to act on the seeds for it to work at all. So, we see seasonally warmer oceans, leading to more evaporation, and that evaporation has to go somewhere. It creates humidity in the atmosphere, which is what acts upon the cloud seeds to produce rain drops. This was a two day tropical storm fueled by moisture out of the Gulf of America. There aren't enough cloud seeds available to produce such a storm. As for the CO2, we've had, at times, at least 4 times the current level of CO2 in the atmosphere, and Earth got along just fine. It was warmer, more humid, and a lot greener during those times, but life still went on, and thrived. This is just a part of nature's cycles. Folks who live in flood prone areas KNOW they are prone to flooding, and take appropriate precautions. What this "global warming" mania is really doing is providing a false sense of security to those people, leading them to think "the government can fix this", or something of the like - that SOMEONE else can "fix" it - and so they rely on others to do their thinking for them instead of taking the normal precautions that we took when, for instance, I was a kid living in a flood zone. In this Texas flood, the area is so well known for flooding that it's actually nicknamed "Flash Flood Alley". While this may be the biggest flood in a while, it's not the biggest ever, nor is it particularly unusual. The ground is hard and thin, so most any rain that falls there runs off instead of soaking in, and that's a known thing. Everyone is looking for a scapegoat, somewhere to point the finger away from themselves, because no one want to admit that they should have seen this coming, and taken it upon themselves to use the proper precautions. There is no substitute for the man on the ground making decisions for himself instead of relying on government, FEMA, the NWS, or anyone else a thousand miles away from where he is sitting and experiencing it. It's not the cloud seeding. it's not the NWS cutbacks. It's not anthropogenic global warming, it's not "weather war". Those are just among the scapegoats of the day, the excuses people are giving for not doing their own thinking. What it IS is just nature taking it's course, as the globe continues to warm it's way out of the latest ice age. ETA: I live in a flood zone now. We get at least one flood every year, and I've seen up to 3 floods per year, sitting on my front porch. My house is built on a bluff about 25 feet or so above the highest known flood stage. That's how they did it back in the day, to avoid floating downstream. For a flood to get into my house, it would first have to fill several billion cubic yards of volume that is at the moment occupied by just air At this level, it's about 100 yards across the holler to the house on the other bluff, on the other side... which is built at about the same level as mine. The creek, normally about a foot deep and 3 feet or thereabouts wide, would have to collect a lot of water to fill that gap before it can get to me, 8 yards or so above it. 8 yards times 100 yards wide times 3 1/2 miles long... if that volume can be filled, the flood is the least of our worries - we'd have to be looking for Jesus coming back in the clouds, wondering if we had really made the cut. Outsiders used to come in here back in the 1960's and laugh at the stupid hillbillies, building their houses on the sides of mountains instead of on the nice level bottom lands next to the rivers. All we could really do was blink, ask them how well they could swim, and then laugh at their silly asses. We build on mountain sides for a reason. Well, a couple of reasons. One is that we don't like waving at folks from our roofs as our houses float past them. Another is that the bottom lands, next to the rivers, are where we used to do our farming. The floods every year washed rich silt off the mountain sides and deposited it in those bottom lands, making them ideal for growing things - which is an activity hampered by plopping a house right there in the middle of the field and taking up valuable arable land to sit it on. When the floods come every year, the creek gets up into the road at the mouth of the holler, and blocks access both in and out until it recedes. We've learned to handle that by things like making sure we have food available when stores aren't. It's just what passes for common sense around here, since the government saw fit to run the road right through the floodplain instead of up on the hillside. If you don't learn to work with nature, then you'd best learn to deal with it when you piss it off. I personally think working with it is the better option, but what do I know? I'm just another dumbassed hillbilly! . RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - EndtheMadnessNow - 07-10-2025 Well, I gotta agree with Ninurta's opinion. What has happened now has happened before and will happen again with or without mankind. A lot more people these days versus 50-100 years ago live next to or in the path of large bodies of water and known flood zones. Water attracts humans like nothing else. Also, water has no mercy, like the oceans if you're unprepared/naive/lack of common sense or just plain like living dangerously. RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - FCD - 07-11-2025 I really think the latest flood events being such a big deal is directly attributable to the insatiable appetite of the MSM to go WAY over the top and sensatioinalize and amplify ev-er-y...sin-gle...cot-ton...pi-ck-in...thing into the "unprecedented" tragedy of the Century...ev-er-y...ti-me!!! I can remember numerous flooding events which were easily 150x times worse, with more loss of life, WAY more property damage and destruction, which lasted WAY longer than the Texas flood, or this other flood in NC (or was it SC?)! And, I am not exaggerating either. It wasn't that long ago that the Mississippi River flooded it's banks and even the Corps of Engineers was throwing their hands up saying there was no end in sight, and no solution. Same goes for the Missouri River floods back a decade ago or so. F5 Tornado events which wiped out entire cities. Earthquakes which injured and killed tens of thousands. Volcanoes which wiped out entire cities, and halted aviation across 60% of the nation. Today, one person can die in a shootout and five others are wounded and it's the "apocalypse", a "National Tragedy", and we hear words like "stockpile", , "cache" "machine gunS (plural)", "compound", "fortress", "walls of bullets/gunfire", "ruthless terror gangs taking over" entire major cities. It's just endless, and it's EVERY time now days. Somebody pharts in an elevator in Schenectady and it's an "Active Bio-weapon Terrorist 'attack' with 'Innocent' Hostages - Breaking Story!!" Just read the headlines anymore. It's crazy! Doom Porn on CRACK! RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - Michigan Swamp Buck - 07-12-2025 @FCD If it bleeds, it reads. You are so spot on. RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - FCD - 07-12-2025 I don't mean to minimize the tragic events in TX, it was definitely a bad deal for sure. But man, when the MSM found that kids were involved it's like they all decided they were going to get absolute MAXIMUM mileage out of this story and milk it for every single cent (of advertising sponsorship) they could get out of it. Every day it's some new story. Now, they're just going down the list of victims and posting a bio on each child to continue to beat a horse which was dead long ago. Kids dying is horrible, horrible for parents, horrible for families, and horrible for everyone. I get it. But the MSM just running story, after story...after story, over and over, and over again, really gets tiring. In fact, this endless blood-focus on DOOM PORN really only takes AWAY from the kids, if anything! It's the MSM making a buck at the expense of these kids lives, and it's pretty F'ing disgusting if you ask me!! They don't care one bit about these kids!! Nope, all the MSM cares about is "using" their dead bodies as fuel to sell advertising by running endless stories on the subject!! I hate the MSM!! RE: Texas Floods and Cloud Seeding - Kenzo1 - 07-12-2025 Did Kerr county have opportunity to build the warning system ? The counties in red, installed flood alert sirens. Kerr County is the only one that refused to install a siren system 'We don’t want to be bought': Flooded TX county turned down Biden funds for warning system Did fiscal conservatism block plans for a new flood warning system in Kerr County? Quote:In 2021, Kerr County was awarded a $10.2 million windfall from the American Rescue Plan Act, or ARPA, which Congress passed that same year to support local governments impacted by the pandemic. Cities and counties were given flexibility to use the money on a variety of expenses, including those related to storm-related infrastructure. Corpus Christi, for example, allocated $15 million of its ARPA funding to “rehabilitate and/or replace aging storm water infrastructure.” Waco’s McLennan County spent $868,000 on low water crossings. |
